Monday, as I picked up the girls from kindergarten, I noticed a poster - CARNEVAL - Friday february 5th - okay, I need to get home and make some costumes - the week passed and still o costumes - typically me... One girl wanted to be a mermaid, the other a ballet dancer.
www.sewingpatterns.com is a lifesaver once again. I got really nice patterns there and today the costumed were made - now they are both waiting for two little girls to wake up and put them on.
I only hope they fit...
Ariana's castle cake - in reality purple, just bad coloring on the photo. She was so happy about it.
Barbie cake in the progress.
Arielle's Barbie cake - she was also very happy with it. I know I could have worked a little more on the detailing, but was very tired after the first cake and decided it was good enough for a little girl's party.
A new way of using balloons...
Thursday is the big day - the girls will be 5 years old! And we are all in a kind of a birthday mode. The girls are of course in their best princess age and we are having a princess party. They love their Barbie dolls, even though I thought (when I was pregnant with them) they would only love practical wooden toys - they are so beautiful.
This birthday we are therefor having one Barbie cake and one castle cake. I also wanted to make cute, romantic invitations, but since they each have their favorite Disney princess, they had to have those.
Ariana's favorite is Snow White and Arielle's favorite is of course Ariel - their names are so similar.
So their birthday will be full of commercial princesses and Barbies, but maybe we still can manage to make it personal.
